emplyment piss test last week, worried about results. thoughts?

hello, last week i took an employment urinalysis at quest diagnostics. it was the 6405N SAP 5-50 GC/MS. i took the test on december 4th, and the last time i vaped was october 3rd. before that i smoked a bowl on the 21st september. that was the first time smoking since the 15th of september so that gives me about 2 months comepletely clean. i had taken a variety of store bought drug tests with different results. i tried the first check about 3 weeks before my drug test and passed with flying colors. nice solid line and control line. just because i was curious, i bought an at home test and took it first piss of the day. i had a very faint line and the control line. this worried me, so up until about 5 days before my test i worked out with multiple layers of clothing, and ran 3 miles as well as sat in the sauna for a short time afterwards. i drank lots of water, and stopped working out 5 days prior to the test. on the morning of the test, i drank some coffee and a glass of water after my first piss. i used another first check test to test the second piss of the day on the day of the test and it was a nice solid pass. i pissed a few more times, then took the test in the afternoon. i am still nervous because i dont know how much more accurate the test strips at the lab are compared to the at home tests. i know about the 50 ng/ml deal but i am still flipping out. i am about 5'11 and weigh around 170. im pretty active and not overweight. anybody have any similar situations? i really need this job and i am worried sick that the lab will be able to see that i vaped

Youve freaked out and went thru that sauna regime (which BTW does nothing to help pass a U/A) for nothing. A "faint" line means nothing. There is no meaning attributed to the intensity or width of a line. Even synthetic urine controls (which contain zero drug metabolites) can produce a faint line on an assay. A faint line is still a line. Therefore, all of your home tests had the same result: negative.

A negative is a negative.

The lab assays used for the initial screening function on the same principle as the home assays. Neither are more reliable than the other.

Thank you sir. I should find out for sure within a couple days.
